Synopsis Saturday: House of the Dragon

 

"There is no war so hateful to the gods as a war between kin;

and no war so bloody as a war between dragons."

 
Hello everyone!
 
Miss me?
 
I know this one took me forever. I know. I was a little bit shell-shocked after the season finale this past week and needed a little bit of time to gather my thoughts, because this season was a lot of ups and downs.
 
Mainly ups, but definitely some of downs, and nope we're not in Nottingham!
 
We're in Westeros. A long time before Game of Thrones, although it's all the same in this Song of Ice and Fire saga which HBO is intent on building, considering we're getting A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms too now.
 
It's a bit like something that the Hobbits realize in The Lord of the Rings: they're part of a bigger story, and after they're gone, others will continue it, just as others started it before them
 
But enough with me maudlin. It's time to get serious, because the storm's broken in House of the Dragon.

Talkie Tuesday: The Tudors (season 2)


Hello everyone!
And I'm back, with yet another Tudors review. One would think that I've had enough after the one I did for the first season, but nope, one would be wrong!

Can you tell I've been watching Game of Thrones recently and that Jagen H'Ghar is probably one of the best characters ever? 

Anyway.

My friend Maegan definitely has a say in this, obviously, considering she seems to have liked the review I did on the first season, and she asked that I continue with these until I'm done with the show! Which basically means two down after this, and two more to get through!

But then, when you get to look at Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Henry Cavill on screen, I don't think anyone would really complain, now, would they?

Talkie Tuesday: The 100


Hello everyone!
I'm back this week, even though I'm fighting off one heck of a cold (it went through our house like wildfire, and I'm not kidding, dad brought it in and then it went through all of us, ugh). Yesterday my eyes were watering so bad I thought I was going to have to sleep through the rest of today! Luckily, it seems to have just been a rebound or something, since Sunday had been the worst day for me with most of the afternoon spent in bed and nursing a headache, a sore throat, runny nose, and maybe even a slight temperature, not that I checked. That being said, however, I feel sufficiently better this morning to get this blog post up and running, and stop complaining about it! It won't help, either way.

So I know The 100 finished a couple of weeks ago (boo!) and most of the reviews are already in, the recaps obviously overdone, but I figured I could toss my own two cents into the mix while I was at it, considering this is one of my absolute favourite CW shows the network has pushed out in the last couple of years. And I mean, talk about a finale!
